CHAPTER 9 - PAGE 24

(Transcript and visual captions below}

The hotel was a total wreck, how long before the police came? Angela made a telephone call to the front desk to complain about the noise coming from the room across the hall. Humans were easy to confuse and send away, but itwas hard to think in the state she was in.

Vitus would help, surely. Like he always did. Such a helpful boy.

In which Vitus has had the hardest day ever.

  
    In the moment, Vitus forgot so many times in his past that he wished for this very thing. Every abuse, every nightmarish murder he witnessed. How many times he had to will himself to forget the awful and painful. All he could think about were all the things left unsaid, all the unfinished business. He never got to say goodbye, he never got to say he loved her too. All these years, he did too.
Even though it wasn't true. But in this moment, it was.

:( So sad. Poor Angela, she never got to finish her fanfic. I tell you, killing all these darlings is hard work, I'm a terrible person. I did do some penance by lovingly drawing blood dripples for hours. The character-killing crazy train is not yet... at the end of its tracks? Ooh that's a terrible metaphor. Anyway, more violence to come, and the chapter has nearly come to its end.

PS, WOW I actually uploaded a page a day early, and it's even 5 rows again because I forgot there was another one left after all! Go me! Well next week should be even better for Kingfisher fans because we handily met our donation goal, so TWO comics next week! (At least, I'm going to try my very damnedest! If I'm too late I'm not going to count it against your generously gifted USA dollars. BTW in case of another goal being met, any additional money will be rolled over, adding to the next week's bonus!

            

TRANSCRIPT: This is the text of the comic, for purposes such as translation and internet searches.

(Vitus' groggily wakes up, his face covered in cuts, a hand with long red fingernails cradles his head.)

OFF-SCREEN: Vitus... Wake up, it’s all over.

VITUS: ...Mum...?

2.)

(Angela holds Vitus, he wakes up. The room is in disarray.)

VITUS: Huh--Oh! You- You used the nail?

ANGELA: I did.

VITUS: Thank God!

3.)

(Angela runs her fingers through Vitus' hair tenderly.)

ANGELA: Don’t thank him. For me, please don’t. Tell Gaston-Louis I love him when you see him.

4.)

(Vitus wakes with a start, Angela has a large gaping wound in her chest.)

VITUS: Wha---Angela! Why--

5.)

(Angela leans in for the makeout.)

6.)

(Vitus actually goes for it this time.)

7.)

(Angela sits back with an emotional look.)

ANGELA: I love you too. I’m sorry I was such a bad mother--

8.)

(Suddenly, neat rows of wounds form on Angela's face, to her surprise.)

9.)

(She covers her face in shame as the wounds bleed profusely.)

ANGELA: No, don’t look...

10.)

(She abruptly falls head first into Vitus' chest. Vitus hasn't yet processed what's going on.)

VITUS: Angela...?

11.)

(In the past, Angela is questioned by a man in a robe. In the background is an iron maiden, and bound women with angry whip lashes on their backs.)

ANGELA: NEVER!

12.)

(Angela screams as the iron maiden closes upon her.)

ANGELA: HAIL DOREIN!!

13.)

VISION OF THEODORE: IT'S NEARLY COMPLETE

14.)

VITUS: No!

15.)

(He looks to the side, seeing a piece of paper pinned to the wall.)

(Elsewhere, Theodore sits on a roof, covered in blood, he licks his fingers.)

19.)

(He licks the blood off his hand with a blank look.)
